Yes, it can be considered sexual contact. It also can be considered sexual harassment when the hug is unwanted.

No and Yes, it all depends on the person doing the hugging. It may be just a way of feeling a physical closeness with another person that is comforting but has no particular sexual connotation, However that opinion can be contested by the frequency of a male child getting an erection as a result of a motherly or even fatherly hug. So one would probably have to say that it depends on the person doing the hugging and also on the person being hugged and the feeling that each gets from it. I have certainly had a sexual feeling from a hug unknown to the other person and at other time not.

No, hugging is not typically considered sexual contact. It is a common form of affection or greeting that is non-sexual in nature and is often seen as a way to express care, empathy, or comfort.

I hate stupid questions... ug. Why does anyone date anyone? Because they like them? They enjoy spending time with them? That's a friend. ALL dating is about sexual attention. It may not be so big as actual intercourse, but holding hands, kissing, hugging, this is all sexual contact. Dating is about sex and that's all there is to it.
